Embodiment Construction

[0019] Now turning to the attached image, figure 1 An example portable light 100 is shown adjustably held in a bracket assembly 105 which is in turn secured to a base 110 . Bracket assembly 105 holds cylindrical housing 115, which can be placed on figure 2 is better seen in the corresponding exploded view of . Housing 115 provides a longitudinally extending housing for, for example, four AA batteries 200 . A flashlight bezel 120 protrudes radially from the housing 115 . Light frame 120 receives a plurality of LEDs 205 , which are mounted on LED board 210 . Light frame 120 also receives reflector 215 and lens 220 as is conventional in the flashlight art. Retainer 225 is threadably received by light frame 120 to secure lens 220 and associated seals 221 and 222 to light frame 120 . Because the light frame 120 is directed radially with respect to the longitudinal axis of the housing 115, light will also be projected radially with respect to this longitudinal axis.
